"Grant of fully-vested deferred share units (DSUs) pursuant to the Company's Non-Management Trustee Compensation and Deferral Program"

Deferred share units (DSUs) are a form of long-term compensation that give an executive or director a payable claim whose value moves with the company’s stock price but is not paid out until a later date, often when they leave the company. Think of a DSU as an IOU tied to the share price that becomes cash or shares in the future; investors watch DSUs because they affect potential share dilution, the timing of cash outflows, and whether management’s interests align with long-term shareholder value.

change of control financial

"upon the reporting person's earlier death or disability or upon an earlier change of control of the Company"

A change of control occurs when the ownership or management of a company shifts significantly, such as through a sale, merger, or acquisition, resulting in new leadership or ownership structure. This change can impact the company's direction and decision-making, which is important for investors because it may affect the company's stability, strategy, and future prospects.
